Electromagnetism (em) field such as can be called as rotation em field, because amplitude can rotate around reflector in Plane of rotation according to the time, namely can perform rotary motion with angular speed.In other words, the maximum of point, the i.e. such as field intensity of em field of same phase or minimum value can according to the time respectively under different directions or angle relative to transmitter arrangement.Figuratively, such as field intensity maximum (at this reflector) as the light beam of beacon is movable.Especially, the speed of rotary motion can equal the frequency of em field self.But also speed may present other value.The rotary motion of em field can be characterized by certain phase (phase place) of motion (as the process circulated typically); One turn over can corresponding to the phase of the accumulation of 360 ° or 2 π.Such as can move with constant angular speed in the em field rotated.Usually, angular speed is also possible with the correlation of certain regulation of phase (angle).Such as it is possible that Plane of rotation and plane-parallel ground or be such as less than substantially in parallel, that is ± 20 °, be preferably less than ± 10 °, be particularly preferably less than ± 2 ° of orientations, namely such as almost parallel with ground.The em field rotated can utilize coil block according to a further aspect in the invention to produce.
Pass through the rotary motion of sent em field, the field intensity of em field or the corresponding time relationship of phase place can be obtained at the place place of receiver.The field intensity of em field measured by receiver with especially can being set up to time phase ground and/or frequency discrimination, and to this, receiver such as can be set up to the amplitude of the magnetic field component measuring em field, and it again can be proportional with the field intensity of em field.Difference so may be determined from the measurement of field intensity; Such as relative to reference phase, it especially can by the determining in the em field of reflector when launching mutually.
To this, as illustrative especially but not as the example restrictively set forth, following situation should be described: reflector sends em field when 0 ° of phase place, it is made to point to east (limiting arbitrarily).But receiver is positioned at the south of reflector and therefore (goes back) not " seeing " maximum.When the 90 ° of phase places in reflector place, the maximum of amplitude just arrives receiver (if the em field rotated turns clockwise).Therefore, can be used in this example, with-90 °, difference is described.Corresponding example also can illustrate for the value being different from the maximum of amplitude of em field certainly.Such as, this can relate to certain activation levels of amplitude, its in view of rising or trailing edge define.
Certainly usually equally may relative to another with reference to determining difference mutually, such as relative to the triggering signal of system clock (System-Takt) or outside, such as, relative to by the user in environmental area etc. around or the object manipulation door handle that picks out.The maximum of amplitude or field intensity such as also may be replaced to observe minimum value or hand over zero (Nulldurchgang), or the important point of the time-varying process of distinctive observable quantity (Observable) or arbitrary phase.The amplitude of magnetic component of usual observable electromagnetic field or the amplitude of electric component; Both can be important for the field intensity of em field.But reflector and/or receiver have at least one coil, it is set up to and inductively interacts with the magnetic component of electromagnetic field.
Can by differing the position determining receiver.At this, term " position " can represent the most different precision that position is determined: in a simple especially form of implementation, term " position " only can represent the angle (in the examples described above-90 °) of receiver relative to reflector.But also possible that, additional or alternative in the angle relative to reflector, term " position " also represents the distance relative to reflector, such as, in the Plane of rotation of em field.In addition it is possible that term " position " additionally or alternatively represent such as relative to this Plane of rotation of em field, that is perpendicular to the distance of Plane of rotation; In such a case, especially it is possible that term " position " represents that the absolute position of receiver in reference frame is determined; Reference frame can be selected arbitrarily usually, however can be worth pursue be about this at least one reflector definition reference frame (reflector such as can be arranged in the initial point of reference frame).In other words, term " is determined position " and represents to determine three-dimensional single coordinate, the distance of such as spheric coordinate system and/or azimuth and/or polar angle, but or determines three-dimensional all coordinates.
Such as, what can be worth pursuit in different forms of implementation is determining especially accurately of the position performing receiver.The determining especially accurately especially can comprise of the position of receiver determines three-dimensional multiple or all coordinates.Namely especially in such a case can by multiple reflector, such as two or three reflectors send more than one, such as two or three electromagnetic fields.In other words, can be each field and one reflector is provided.Then can determining multiple difference, such as, respectively relative to the em field sent by multiple reflector, and accurately determining the position of receiver especially when considering multiple difference.
Multiple em field may be sent with different frequencies, so-called frequency diversity in different forms of implementation simultaneously.It is then possible that receiver design becomes to measure multiple em fields at different frequencies.Frequency diversity can have the effect determining position especially fast.Rotate em field to send two or more, such as, can use navigation system according to a further aspect in the invention.
Carry out in turn it is possible that send for two or more electromagnetic fields and these two or more electromagnetic field measurementses are carried out in turn.The determination of the position of receiver the determination of the position of receiver can comprise and determines such direction and distance based on carry out the triangulation of these at least two differences, and receiver is arranged in the Plane of rotation of the electromagnetic field of time correlation relative at least one in reflector with this direction and distance.Such situation also can be called as time diversity, because in turn send multiple em field at different time in other words in turn, namely.So also can by multiple measured known multiple difference in em field, and triangulation can realize position, especially also with the determining especially accurately of the distance of one or more reflector.Triangulation may imply that usually determines position based on the known layout of multiple reflector and measured difference.Technology for triangulation is known in principle for those skilled in the art, thus need not set forth further details here.
Be possible especially in this reference frame (going back the position of known emitter wherein) and determine position.Namely especially it is possible that reflector is such as fixedly arranged about reference frame position and receiver is movably arranged.Such as direction can illustrate with spherical coordinate as azimuth in reference frame, the initial point of a formation reference frame in reflector.Other definition is also possible.
Such technology (its comprise send two or more em fields) can allow accurately to determine especially the position of receiver, or it allows two or three coordinates determining receiver position.Determined position such as can illustrate user on a display screen.This also can realize finding receiver simply.Especially by use the technology of triangulation realize via the effect determined of position.Be understood that, difference is detected for rotation em field more accurately to carry out, that is there is smaller error, especially compared with conventional art (its measurement based on the field intensity of em field and wherein position determine the attenuation rate of the amplitude based on em field).Especially can not need the attenuation rate of the amplitude considering em field completely in different forms of implementation, in different forms of implementation, therefore can save the attenuation rate of the field intensity starting illustrated correcting measuring detection em field yet.This can reduce the cost of the method for performing the position for determining receiver.It is to be understood however that, alternatively or additionally also may consider the attenuation rate of the field intensity of em field.This can make extra high precision in position is determined become possibility.Especially, these two or more em fields can be sent into it is all rotated in a Plane of rotation.
In addition, the method can comprise the field intensity detecting this at least one electromagnetic field based at least one measured electromagnetic field in the position of receiver, wherein, the determination of the position of receiver comprises based on the distance of detected field intensity determination receiver relative to the Plane of rotation of electromagnetic field.
Based on field intensity such as can determine qualitatively or quantitatively receiver to be positioned on Plane of rotation or under.To this, especially can be provided with coil as reflector, it surrounds certain angle with the plane launched by all the other coils.If namely receiver relative to Plane of rotation separately, then in the same position in Plane of rotation, (with the distance of reflector, the angle with reflector) distance greater or lesser with Plane of rotation can cause smaller or greater field intensity.As the tolerance to field intensity, such as, can use the amplitude of magnetic-field component.Alternatively or additionally, what be worth pursuit also can be based on the distance of field intensity determination receiver only on Plane of rotation.When reflector relative to ground, there is less distance and receiver therefore inevitable upwards relative to Plane of rotation separately time, this can be this situation.
In addition, the method can comprise this at least one electromagnetic field of modulation to communicate information to receiver place, and wherein, information comprises the element selected from following group: with reference to the clock information of phase, the identifying information of this at least one reflector.
The modulation technique selected from following group may be used: frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (PM), " frequency shift keying " (FSK), " phase shift keying " (PSK), pulse-ampli tude modulation (PAM), pulse code modulation (PCM) at this.Usually, known in principle for those skilled in the art other technology is also possible.
Identifying information such as can comprise the information of the position about respective transmitter.This positional information such as can illustrate that corresponding reflector is positioned at where about motor vehicle, such as " right front " or " left side " or " right back " etc.Such as still or also conduct coding is by its parametrization for these positional informations of the explicit transmission of possibility, and this coding is such as associated by with position by the form such as stored in the receiver.
Usually likely for the electromagnetic field be issued that multiple electromagnetic field be issued is different, there is different modulation techniques and/or modulating frequency.But also may have the different modulating frequency of identical modulation technique in different em fields.Also identical modulation technique and modulating frequency may be selected for all em fields.The information transmitted can corresponding difference.
The em field of the such as each rotation of possibility is produced by multiple (such as three or four) em field (it is sent under the phase relation of regulation by each coil).These em fields producing the em field rotated can differently be modulated again, such as, to transmit different information.
According to the service condition of the method for the position for determining receiver, preferably certain modulation technique and/or modulating frequency, such as relative to the application for the location of personnel in building space, differently modulation technique can be selected in the application of the position for determining motor vehicle key.
Especially difference may be detected based on the clock information with reference to phase in addition.Such as, can detect relative to the difference with reference to phase.At this, according to form of implementation, clock information can have the different information contents: in a simple especially form of implementation, possibility clock information represents the only friendship zero (Nulldurchgang) (or integral multiple of 360 °) with reference to phase.But likely with reference to transmitting via clock information in time-resolved mode in the form of implementation that other are different.Can realize like this determining current phase place or reference phase in the part rotated of em field.Certainly also may in certain step such as with the delivered spaced of pi/2 or π/4 or π/8 etc. with reference to phase.
Identifying information such as can be used in the application of the certification comprising receiver.Such as, in the position of motor vehicle key is determined, the identifying information of this at least one motor vehicle can be compared with the identifying information of receiver, undelegated close to prevent.
Likely between the frequency and the attenuation rate of field intensity of em field, there is contact.Therefore different large scope (position can be realized wherein determine) may be realized according to the frequency of em field, such scope is determined by the field intensity (sensitive range) being greater than threshold value of em field, make especially in em field measurement signal to noise ratio enough large.In different frequency ranges, such as said frequencies scope, higher (lower) frequency can cause less (larger) attenuation rate of field intensity and therefore make larger (less) sensitive range become possibility.How following elaboration can enable this method determined for position utilize this understanding in current in different form of implementation.

Embodiment
Next the present invention is elaborated when reference accompanying drawing according to preferred form of implementation.In the accompanying drawings, identical Reference numeral represents same or analogous element.Set forth for the technology of locating or position is determined with reference to the accompanying drawings: in these are different, relate to the coil and coil block that allow to send rotary electromagnetic field, and comprise multiple in such coil block and there is the navigation system of the system configuration determined, and allow to the basic fundamental determining position according to rotating magnetic field.
Figure 1 illustrates comprising three coil 210a, the vertical view of the coil block of 210b, 210c.Coil 210a has two coil windings 212a, 212b.Coil 210b has two coil windings 212c, 212d.Coil 210c has two coil windings 212e, 212f.Coil windings 212a-212f is respectively around three arm 211a of ferromagnetic coil yoke 211, and one in 211b, 211c reels and can carry out electrical contact independently.Coil yoke such as can be made up of the alloy of iron, nickel, chromium, oxide or these materials.Arm 211a, 211b, 211c have circular cross section and are therefore cylindricalitys.It can have 3mm-30mm, the diameter of preferably 6mm.The shape of arm is variable.It radially extends from the center of coil block 200.Coil yoke is continuous print and does not therefore especially have large space or gap, therefore at these three coil 210a, can set up magnetic connection (the interactive form causing larger magnetic flux with ferromagnetic) between 210b, 210c.Different volume number of turns amounts can be selected according to the inductance expected (with the frequency of therefore electromagnetic field).
Magnetic flux can have different values at the difference place of coil block 200.These values can be specified by the version of coil block 200.Such as, null value can be presented at the center magnetic flux of coil block 200 or close to zero, that is present very little value.
As seen from Figure 1, coil 210a, 210b, 210c are all arranged in a plane.Show alternative form of implementation in Figures 2 A and 2 B, wherein, coil 210c is angle beta relative to this plane (coil plane) tipping.Thus, the little size of coil block 200 in coil plane can be realized.Such as, angle beta can in the scope of 20 °-30 °.
Again with reference to figure 1, coil 210a and coil 210b surrounds angle 213a.Coil 210b and coil 210c surrounds angle 213b.Coil 210c and coil 210a surrounds angle 213c.Angle 213a, 213b, 213c extend respectively within coil plane.In the form of implementation of Fig. 1, angle 213a, 213b, 213c have identical value, namely 120 °.In other words, the coil block 200 of Fig. 1 has the arrangement of star.Although show the form of implementation that symmetry is very high in FIG, but angle 213a that usually may be different, 213b, 213c have different values, when the version of coil block 200 is subject to a definite limitation due to structural limitations, this is worth expecting by it.Angle 213a, 213b, 213c are not limited especially and can have different values.Such as, angle 213a-213b-213c has following value respectively: 180 °-90 °-90 °; 200 °-80 °-80 °; 160 °-100 °-100 °.
As shown in Figures 2 A and 2 B, single coil 210c tipping from coil plane.Thus, the lateral dimension of coil block 200 can be reduced, the size that is within the coil plane launched by coil 210a, 210b.But, due to being also positioned within coil plane with the component of the electromagnetic field of time correlation of being produced by coil 210c, the coil block 200 of Fig. 2 A with 2B can be utilized to produce the electromagnetic field similar to the electromagnetic field of the coil block 200 of Fig. 1.
In Fig. 1,2A, 2B, respectively illustrate such situation, that is, coil block 200 comprises three coil 210a wherein, 210b, 210c, and usually may use multiple coil.Such as, can imagine such form of implementation, that is, wherein, coil block 200 has four (six) coils, and it surrounds the angle of 90 ° (60 °) respectively each other within coil plane.
The above Primary Reference architectural feature of coil block 200.Below explain, rotating electromagnetic (em) field may be produced by means of such coil block 200.This rotation em field is produced by the superposition of the em field of being launched by single coil.Rotate em field referred to here as such field, that is, wherein, the point of the homophase of em field rotates as the function coiling assembly 200 (such as its central point 201, is shown in Fig. 1) of time.
In order to produce em field, coil 210a-210c is handled as oscillation circuit together with capacitor (not shown in fig. 1-3).With reference to figure 3, first such form of implementation is discussed, wherein, all coils 210a of the coil block 200 of Fig. 1,210b, 210c are energized, that is to roll up circle 212a, 212b and 212c, the mode that 212d and 212e, 212f are combined.In figure 3, the function as the time illustrates by coil 210a, the electric current 85 of 210b, 210c.Such electric current realizes by corresponding alternating current.As can as seen from Figure 3, alternating voltage/electric current 85 has the difference of 120 °, namely corresponding to angle 213a, 213b, 213c.Alternating voltage 85 such as produces by current-voltage-inverter, and this inverter makes coil block 200 be connected with the 12V direct current network of motor vehicle.So, on alternating voltage 85 penetralia that can be applied to the arm be associated with corresponding coil 210a-210c and outermost contact.
Like this to coil 210a, the energising of 210b, 210c causes electromagnetic field 80, it is characterized in that the amplitude 81 of magnetic field component shown in Figure 4.Fig. 4 shows at moment t 1em field 80.Electromagnetic field has symmetry, and it is corresponding to the symmetry of coil block.The em field 80 illustrated especially within coil plane of Fig. 4.
It should be understood that and may the identical mode of other arrangement of coil block 200 be utilized to produce with drawing in the diagram by electromagnetic field 80, this arrangement be different from shown in Figure 1.Such as, if contiguous coil 210a, the angle 120 of angle 213a-213c and Fig. 1 of 210b, 210c is different, then correspondingly can mate alternating voltage 85, especially phase shift (see Fig. 3).Thus, contiguous angle 213a can be compensated, the change of 213b, 213c and can keeping as situation shown in Figure 4.When single coil 210 is also suitable for corresponding situation during tipping from coil plane as shown in Figure 2.The projection of corresponding coil 210c in coil plane may be considered at this.
Explain the rotation as the em field 80 of the function of time below with reference to Fig. 5, that is, explain the em field 80 rotated.At four not t in the same time 1, t 2, t 3, t 4show em field 80 (also seeing Fig. 3).In addition, bottom shows the phase 82 of the em field 80 of rotation in Figure 5.The increase (phase integral) along with applying the phase 82 increased can be found out.As can as seen from Figure 5, em field 80 coiling assembly 200 within coil plane rotates.Therefore, coil plane overlaps with Plane of rotation.Show such situation in Figure 5, that is, wherein, em field 80 has the constant amplitude of the function as angle/phase, and the amplitude of em field 80 81 (such as can according to the version of coil block 200) also has the correlation with phase.Three-phase alternating-current motor can be regarded as on picture, be similar to the operational mode for generation of the coil block 200 rotating em field 80.
Schematically illustrate the measurement of the amplitude 81 of the magnetic field component of the em field 80 at some P (also the seeing Fig. 5) place in the exocoel of coil block 200 and within Plane of rotation in figure 6.In addition show the amplitude 81 (dotted line illustrates) for a P' in figure 6, this P' have distance relative to Plane of rotation and its projection in Plane of rotation with put P and overlap.The difference of the amplitude 81 between P and P' is for the tolerance of a P' relative to the distance of Plane of rotation.Amplitude 81 is proportional with the field intensity of em field 80.As can be seen, amplitude sinusoid ground change (solid line).May determine relative to the difference 92 with reference to phase 90.Such as, the reference phase 90 of clock information 90 is had by modulation em field 80 transfer tape.
In order to modulate em field 80, can use modulation technique, it selects from following group: frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (PM), " frequency shift keying " (FSK), " phase shift keying " (PSK), pulse-ampli tude modulation (PAM), pulse code modulation (PCM).Usually, other modulation technique known to those skilled in the art in principle is also feasible.Also may modulate by different coil 210a with different modulation skills in principle, 210b, 210c produce em field 80 different component and especially carry out frequency modulation.
Clock information 95 is especially also by modulating independently by different coil 210a, and the em field 80 that 210b, 210c send is transmitted.In other words, this means, can time-resolved mode being passed mutually of em field 80.So may determine difference 92 from a part for the turn over of em field 80, such as, (there is the angle 213a of 120 °, in the situation of the coil of 213b, 213c at 3) from 1/3 or 2/3 turn.
The position of receiver can be determined by the operation of single coil assembly 200.At this, position can represent different information depth: such as especially may determine the position in the azimuth in the Plane of rotation relative to coil block 200 from difference 92.But also by using two or more coil blocks, position can be determined more accurately according to different aspects, seeing Fig. 7 A.Mean at this more accurately, except azimuth, additionally or alternatively determine distance and/or polar angle.In different coordinate systems, differently can represent different coordinates.
Also may not be that (distance, azimuth, polar angle) determines position in spheric coordinate system, but determine position in other coordinate system any.This position especially can be determined in reference frame.Reference frame can be determined with reference to the position of (multiple) coil block 200 aptly, but such as can determine with reference to (multiple) coil block 200 motor vehicle be arranged on wherein.
In fig. 7, in the scope of corresponding navigation system, such as use two coil block 200a, 200b for determining receiver 30, the such as identification sensor position P as the key of motor vehicle.Receiver 30 is set up to measurement two coil block 200a, the rotation em field 80 of 200b.For this reason, receiver such as can have one or more receiver coil (not shown in fig. 7).In addition, receiver is set up to and detects difference 92 thus.As can be found out from Fig. 7 A, receiver 30 has the difference 91 different relative to the em field 80 of two coil block 200a, 200b.If determine two different differences 92 and known to coil block 200a, the distance between 200b, such as can by means of the exact position of triangulation determination receiver 30 within the Plane of rotation of em field 80.Position is by such as characterizing relative to the distance a of coil block 200a and direction A.
Larger precision may be realized: this is such as by realizing with under type, that is, adding as difference 92, also measures the field intensity of electromagnetic field 80 or the parameter proportional with it by receiver when determining the position P of receiver 30.By additionally measuring the amplitude of magnetic component of field intensity, such as electromagnetic field, can realize, determine the vertical range a' of receiver 30 relative to Plane of rotation.This in figure 7b (end view of Fig. 7 A) illustrated by vertical arrow.That is, if receiver 30 is located at the P' place, position on or below the Plane of rotation 300 of rotating magnetic field 80, then the position projection of receiver 30 in Plane of rotation 300 can be determined clearly according to difference 92 by triangulation described above.Afterwards, according to the vertical range of receiver 30 relative to Plane of rotation 300, the field intensity of em field 80 can greater or lesser (dotted line see in figure 6).
If except two coil block 200a, 200b also uses other coil block, then the unreliability in position is determined can be reduced, such as, the error of triangulation can be determined.Although below with reference to figure 7A and 7B at two coil block 200a, 200b aspect explains the technology of the position for determining receiver 30, it is to be understood however that, usually may use more than two coil block 200a, 200b.If such as use three, four or five coil blocks, then may reduce the error in the position of receiver 30 is determined.Multiple em field 80 can not be launched (time diversity) in the same time or launch (frequency diversity) with different frequency at least partly simultaneously in turn or in succession.Thus, receiver 30 can make the corresponding em field 80 recorded and coil block 200a, and one in 200b is associated.
Show the electric wiring of coil 210a in fig. 8 a.Especially, two coil windings 212a, 212b can be found out.These two coil windings 212a, 212b can run (also seeing Fig. 1) by contacting with x4 place at contact x1 with being linked.Capacitor 226 and two coil windings 212a, 212b connect.But also may only make coil windings 212a run.For this reason, another capacitor in parallel with coil windings 212a 225 is set.
Make coil windings 212a in the mode of connection, in the situation that 212b runs, the inductance of coil 210a is greater than the situation only making coil windings 212a run.Therefore, especially the resonance frequency for last described situation is less than for the resonance frequency of first described situation.Such as, when coil 210a utilizes two coil windings 212a, 212b to run, by the electric capacity selective resonance frequency like this designing inductance and capacitor 226 suitably, that is, it is 125kHz.Correspondingly, the resonance frequency for the operation only comprising the coil 210a of coil windings 212a and another capacitor 225 is chosen to 1MHz equally.Certainly can by design capacitance and inductance produce other frequency suitably.In addition, for any also known multiple technologies of art technology.
Usually, for capacitor 226 series circuit, launch em field time power consumption be compared to another capacitor 225 parallel circuits larger.In certain application, such as, for the receiver environment search in long-range scope.Irrotational em field such as can be comprised to the manipulation of the parallel circuits of another capacitor when preferably 1MHz.The feature of such situation is low electric power consumption, this such as in distance far away close to identify, that is for motor vehicle 1 until the coverage far away of 10m is very preferred.If identify identification sensor 30 in the distance that this is far away, capacitor 226 so can be utilized to activate series circuit.In this operational mode, can to determine in short range region, such as with motor vehicle 1 until in the scope of 3m the position of identification sensor 30 and position move towards.The classification of such type runs and can cause less energy ezpenditure, and this is especially be worth expecting in electric motor car.
In the frequency range comprising said frequencies, the attenuation rate of electromagnetic field 80 can with frequency dependence.Thus, higher frequency can cause the less attenuation rate of electromagnetic field 80.This illustrates in the fig. 8b.In the fig. 8b, the amplitude 81 of the magnetic component of such as electromagnetic field 80 is shown as the distance relative to the coil block 200 launched.Solid line (dotted line) shows the situation of the resonance frequency of relatively low (height) of corresponding oscillation circuit, as explained in above reference diagram 8A.As found out from Fig. 8 B, the attenuation rate for the electromagnetic field 80 of higher resonance frequency is lower.Therefore can by carrying out the position of receiver 30 in the remote zone 311 (short range region 310) of coil block 200 to only one (two) coil windings 212a (212a, 212b) energising.
The alternate voltage source 242 be connected with supply line 241 is schematically shown in 8C.Supply line 241 such as can be the 12V direct current network of motor vehicle.Alternate voltage source 241 is set up to the alternating voltage produced as shown in figure 3.In addition, in Fig. 8 C, computing unit 243 has been shown, it is set up to, by bus system 240 reception control signal and according to the transmitting of this control signal control em field 80.
The different views of the coil block 200 of Fig. 1 in housing 220 has been shown in Fig. 9 A-9F and 10A to 10D.Capacitor 225,226 and other power electric device also can be arranged within housing.Show electric contact 222, it makes coil block be connected with the conductor circuit on circuit board 230.Such as, contact is connected with alternate voltage source 242 by conductor circuit on circuit boards.In addition, be provided with support 221, coil block 200 position is fixed within housing 220 by regularly.Housing can provide the protection relative to vibration, deposit, moisture and preferably can be made of plastics.For observability reason, the upside of not shown housing 220, but can arrange on the upside of this.As can be found out from Fig. 9 A-9F and 10A-10D, the upper side and lower side and the circuit board 230 of housing are parallel to Plane of rotation 300 or coil plane.Special hull shape is not restrictive and can differently selects.It should be understood that according to operational version, recommend different housings 220.The mode that housing can be parallel to ground planar orientation is installed.
Figure 11 illustrates the alternative form of implementation of coil block 200.This form of implementation is corresponding to integrated version, and wherein, conductor circuit 231 forms the coil windings 212a of plane earth on circuit board 230,212c, 212e (dotted line).Such as, conductor circuit is made by etching or clad can or printing technology.
Arrange the recess 232 of circuit board 230, coil yoke 211 (not shown in fig. 11) is inserted and secured in this recess 232.This form of implementation can have the effect of especially little space requirement.
Explain the system configuration of navigation system 100 below according to Figure 12-14, it comprises at least two coil blocks 200,200a, 200b.By above with reference to the technology that figure 7A and 7B describes, navigation system 100 accurately can determine receiver 30, such as the position of the key of motor vehicle.Not only also can relatively accurately carry out position in the inside of motor vehicle in the outside of motor vehicle to determine, such as, until the precision of several centimetres.Such as, the position of the determination of key graphically for user illustrates, such as, on the screen of the car-mounted computer of motor vehicle 1.For this reason, rotation em field can be produced.
First illustrate known navigation system 100 in fig. 12.Controller 25 is connected with another controller 25a.Such as, controller 25 can be the part of the central computation unit of motor vehicle.In addition, controller 25 is connected with wave point 31, and it sets up the data transmission with identification sensor 30.Another controller 25A is connected with the door handle sensor 22 of motor vehicle by data circuit.The detectable motor vehicle of door handle sensor 22 can closing plate, such as door and bonnet manipulation or close to hope.In addition, another controller 25a is connected to generate an electromagnetic field with single coil 210 by supply line 241, and it can be identified transducer 30 and measure.As can as seen from Figure 12, the system configuration of above navigation system can be designed to relative complex.Especially, such as, must lay in the supply line 241 of a large amount of two cores, this needs the complicated wiring of motor vehicle: controller 25a comprises alternate voltage source, and it is coil 210 service voltage by circuit 241a.
Schematically show in fig. 13 according to navigation system 100 of the present invention.
Four coil block 200a-200d and capacitance sensor 20 and optical pickocff 21 are set.Coil block 200a-200d is connected with bus system 240 by computing unit (not shown in fig. 13), and bus system makes to become possibility with the data communication of controller 25.Bus system can be such as " controller local area network " (CAN) bus system, " Local Interconnect Network " (LIN) or " FlexRay " or other bus system.Controller 25 sends order by bus system 240, and this order is received and translation by the computing unit of corresponding coil block 200a-200d.So, coil block 200a-200d is set up to the em field 80 as producing rotation respectively to the reaction of control signal.For this reason required energy can be detected by supply line 241.Such as, supply line can provide direct voltage (such as 12V), thus corresponding electric switch circuit, i.e. alternate voltage source are set in coil block 200a-200d, to produce thus to produce the required alternating voltage with the phase relation of regulation.Such as, control unit 25 can so manipulate coil block 200a-200d, that is, corresponding em field 80 sends in the different time (time diversity) and/or with different frequencies (frequency diversity).Utilize with reference to the technology that figure 7A and 7B describes, the position of receiver 30 can be determined.Compared with the system of Figure 12, the navigation system 100 of Figure 13 has the reaction time faster, because eliminate the middle controller 25a connected.
Figure 14 shows the navigation system 100 with the assembly in motor vehicle 1.Can find out again from Figure 14, be undertaken controlling and Power supply by the circuit 240,241 be separated.In fig. 14, coil block 200a, 200b be arranged on right side with in the Qianmen in left side.Also may in coil block 200a, the 200b B post that is arranged on left side and right side and/or C post.Such as other coil block can be set Modularly in the region of motor vehicle rear.
Figure 15 illustrates the flow chart of the method for the position for determining receiver.Method starts with step S1.Such as, the activation trigger signal beginning through outside of method, such triggering signal such as can be the manipulation of door handle or close identification.First, in step s 2, the estimation of the position to receiver 30 is received.Such as, the estimation of the position of receiver 30 is by being reserved in optics in the door handle (also seeing Figure 13) of motor vehicle 1 and/or capacitance sensor 20,21 carries out.Therefore, the estimation of the position of receiver 30 such as can comprise information depth, such as: " receiver 30 is positioned at left front relative to motor vehicle 1 " or " receiver be positioned at motor vehicle 1 after ".
And then, in step s3, according to being selected to send the one or more coil blocks rotating em field 80 subsequently by the position estimated in step s 2.Such as, if known from step S2, receiver 30 is positioned at the left front of motor vehicle 1 as shown in Figure 14, then such as select coil block 200b and 200c, this is such situation, because for the topology (as described in above reference diagram 7A and 7B) based on difference, very little relative to coil block 200b due to the very little differential seat angle with receiver 30 by the infomation detection determining to carry out by means of the difference of coil block 200a.Alternatively such as also can run all three coil block 200a-200c or only coil block 200b etc.In step s 4 which, triggering signal is sent to a place in the coil block 200a-200c selected in step s3 by bus system.So, this current coil block launches rotary electromagnetic field 80.Rotary electromagnetic field 80 is so produced by corresponding coil block 200a-200c, that is, its by modulate not only comprise for cognitron motor-car 1 information and also comprise clock information 95.Such as, clock information can comprise with reference to phase, determines difference mutually relative to this reference.Also the difference relative to the outer triggering signal in step S1 may be determined.The transmitting of rotary electromagnetic field 80 can by means of the different coil 210a-210c alternating voltage 85 of multiple phase shift being applied to corresponding coil block 200a-200c superpose corresponding em field and realize.
Carry out the measurement of electromagnetic field 80 in step s 6.Therefore, step S5 and S6 such as can carry out simultaneously.The measurement of inductance that the time/frequency that measurement in step s 6 such as can comprise the amplitude 81 of magnetic field component is differentiated.Determine the difference 92 of measured electromagnetic field 80 in the step s 7.Such as, step S7 can the computing unit within receiver 30 carry out.But the information of the rotary electromagnetic field 80 recorded also in possibility step S6 is passed to control unit 25 place by wave point 31, thus can carry out step S7.Check in step s 8, the need of being sent by another coil block 200a-200c and measuring another electromagnetic field 80.If so, step S4 to S7 is re-started.Without road how, the position of receiver is determined in step s 9 based on the difference 92 determined.Step S9 such as can comprise and topologizes.Step S9 such as within controller 25 or computing unit in receiver 30 carries out.Ending method in step slo.
Although already been explained above use independently triggering signal in step s 4 which for manipulating the technology of different coil block 200a-200c, also only may carry out once and in the triggering signal once sent, contained all such information by step S4, that is, which coil block 200a-200c should generate an electromagnetic field 80.In such a case, the timer of activation trigger signal in corresponding coil block 200a-200c; This timer so designs, that is, different coil block 200a-200c is not launching electromagnetic field 80 in the same time.
In addition except time diversity described above, also may can perform the technology of frequency diversity and send different em fields 80 at least partly simultaneously.
In addition, be understood that, step S9 can represent the position P of receiver 30, the different accuracy of the determination of P': such as, may work as when only launching and measure a rotary electromagnetic field 80 (step S5 and S6), as just the position P determining receiver relative to the angle of corresponding coil block 200a-200c or direction A, P'.But, if use two or more rotary electromagnetic fields 80, the position P of receiver accurately can be determined within the Plane of rotation 300 of electromagnetic field 80, P'.This especially can comprise the distance a with coil block 200a-200c.Alternatively, the field intensity of rotary electromagnetic field 80 may be measured in step s 6, that is the amplitude 81 of the such as magnetic component of electromagnetic field 80, and the position P' releasing receiver 30 thus is in step s 9 shown in the dotted line in Fig. 6 relative to the distance a'(of Plane of rotation).Especially, such as can use such form of implementation of coil block 200, that is, wherein, single or multiple coil deflects relative to coil plane for this reason; Such as figure 2 illustrates such situation.The advantage that such scheme can have is, for having same distance relative to Plane of rotation but the different field intensity value of the position measurement of side disposed thereon or below (that is symmetrical relative to Plane of rotation mirror image).Can determine like this receiver 30 to be positioned on Plane of rotation or under.
Although be shown specifically by preferred form of implementation with reference to accompanying drawing and describe the present invention in detail; but the present invention is not subject to the restriction of disclosed example, and those skilled in the art can obtain other flexible program when not leaving protection scope of the present invention.Such as may the position that described abovely be applied in for the key of motor vehicle determine in technology for personnel location system.Typical applicable cases is such as locate the personnel and object that carry for assessment of the receiver of phase information.All wireless technologys, such as Bluetooth, wireless-LAN (WLAN), radio-frequency (RF) identification (RFID) and other technology all can be used for reflector.
In addition such as possibility navigation system 100 is for the different applicable cases determined based on accurate especially position.That is, such as can by accurately determining that the position of key 30 makes to become possibility by the motion identification controller motor-car 1 of key 30.The side-to-side movement of key 30 such as can cause the left rotation and right rotation of motor vehicle 1 thus.User can be positioned at outside motor vehicle 1 and Long-distance Control motor vehicle 1.
